Want to look updated and hip and funky?

This over 40 model says, " I'm just running around doing errands today"..."Looking fab", we say!
We recently found a wonderful site called Atlantis Home that we wanted to share with all you more daring fashionistas out there.
The author (shown here) is over 40 and just so happens to be a former model. However, even if you are not tall and rail thin, you can still take some fun tips on how to dress a little more funky but still age appropriate!
What makes her looks so great?
- The jacket is updated with 3/4 sleeves and chunky buttons and is a good length on her.
- The gold necklace is bold like the jacket and softens the black top
- Love the neckline of that mini dress
- These jeans are slim all the way down, but not too tight, they give the legs an extra long lean look.
- Even though she is tall she is still rocking platform boots. Believe it or not, these types of heels can be really comfortable.
- She looks sexy with out having to wear tight clothes
Enjoy!
the boots AGGGGGGGGHHHHH, EVEN DAVID BOWIE AND ZIGGY STARDUST GOT RID OF THEIRS,THESE ARE NOT HIP, THEY LOOK DATED BUT THE REST OF THE OUTFIT IS COOL
awww–thanks guys!!
Hi Renee,
We know these boots are not for everyone but they are very hip right now especially in Europe.
Are you kidding with the boots? Spike heels AND platforms? Horrible. They might be “hip” (in Europe and elsewhere), but they are ankle and back breakers. Ridiculous. Otherwise, she looks good and even pretty age-appropriate.
It is fun to hear others reaction to “fashion”. The good thing is that we have fun showing all types of looks, classic, funky, romantic ect… Not all looks are good for everyone! Thanks for piping in!! One note, believe it or not, platform shoes can be comfortable!
